some of you may remember me from ages ago i had the red modded astra mk4 with the noisy boot build was at a couple of shows with the club

anyway i have bought a new car i have had it a few months its a bmw 330ci clubsport and the modding has started lol from what i know there are 131 of these cars in the country and only 20 silver ones so quite rare on the roads

anyway here are a couple of pics and i am a shocking photographer up till now its only been simple stuff changed the brakes to dimpled and grooved and ebc red stuff pads i have a front strut brace and have removed the centre silencer from the exhaust to let the straight 6 rasp escape the pipes lol and i have done quite a few small mods and have started on the stereo again but its only small this time

i got the redstuff pads from a local tuner shop called graham goodes but ebay do them and the disks are just ebay specials they are 325x28 front and 320x25 rears
the pads were 130 for front and rear and the disks were 200 for all four

they are a bit noisy but its worth it as they look really good in my opinion and seeing as you are in the wheel arch get some braided lines gives a massive improvment to pedel feel

i dont have any problems with them but they need a little bit of heat to work best they do lack a bit of bite when cold but not dangerous and if you brake hard like an emergancy you will still outstop anything even when cold

imo well worth the money and not a huge amount more than oem pads in price

a good source of info on e46s is e46zone loads of info and guides for you to use
